Wow, I've been out of the loop for a while now. But I solemly sweart that I've been up to no good! *hee hee* But I've been scanning some of the past theories when I came across "JB AGAIN -- ANGELIA, 17:24:40 03/15/07 Thu [5]" and noted her thoughts on JB being a Berserker and she noted a bit about blue eyes and sapphires: "JB is part berserker. On page 38 he is described as having dark eyes. Dark what? In To Tame Grimm eyes are described as blue. His eyes's are being compared to fine saphires. Saphires are dark blue" and just wanted to point something out: sapphires are also pink ... and green ... and golden ... and a very pretty yellow. The fine sapphires are actually considered to be of a middle shade of clear blue ... dark blue is only one variety of sapphire (and we usually sell the darker ones for less at the jewelery store I'm at). I think KMM is being very intentional in the way she hasn't explicitly described JB's eyes to us yet. She's only giving us hints and clips. Don't forget, though, JB's appearances change as the book goes on. I don't have a copy with me at the moment (and it's been awhile since I've read it) but if you read Mac's first description of him it varies from one in the middle of the book. JB's physical appearance varies just like his treatment of Mac. His description has varied much more than any character in the book and any character KMM has previously written about.
(And as an aside: I've tried putting up some pics of Scotland on the main page ... I'm not sure how well it's working, but y'all might like to check it out anyway).
